IT seems that the vigorous protest
of the people of Tacoma against the
employment of Chinese in the cannery
at that city, has resulted in an
abandonment OF the scheme. A San
Francisco dispatch of the 9th states
that Frank Johnson, of VIM. T. Cole
man & Co., says, in relation to the
report from Tacoma, that the firm had
notified the mayor at that place that
they expected to start up their cannery
about September LIST: "Chinese are
employed at all canneries along Puget
Sound, and it is impossible to get
white labor. However, don't think
we shall open up our cannery anyhow
1t is not matter we care very much
about, and we certainly will not open
it if there is any force to be used"

home up to the time OF his death.
During the ,hirtv-tive years Of his resi-
dence in Washington Territory, he
has been an active and leading partic
ipant in public affairs He was
member of the House during the first
session of the Territorial Legislature,
and served in the same capacity at
several subsequent sessions. His last
service in this capacity was rendered
during the session OF 1888, as Joint
Councilman from the district com
posed of Thurston and Lewis counties
At this session, the right OF voting was
conferred upon women, OF which
measure Captain Hale was a Jealous
and active advocate. He has also at
various times filled the position OF
Trustee and Councilman upon the
board of our town and city govern
ment; was one Of the Originators of
the scheme for supplying Olympia
with water by means of pipes, and for
the manufacture of wooden pipe,
which has since grown into such great
importance, and was President of the
first company organized for these pur-
poses.
Among the various public positions
which he has held, Capt. Hale was
/ Deputy Collector of Customs under
Simpson P. Moses, the first Collector
of Customs for the port of Olympia,
and subsequently, Superintendent of
Indian Affairs for the Territory durir &
the years 1921, under the Admin
istration of President Lincoln.
Captain Hale was indeed a model
pioneer, contributing through his day
and generation constantly towards the
growth and prosperity of the conmun-
ity in which his lot was cast to the
best of his means and ability, and it is
pleasant to call to mind the fact that
his worth has been so frequently re-
cognized in a public manner.
His public services will entitle him
to line in our history; his personal
and domestic virtues will endear him
to the memory of all who knew him,
as a genial, kind-hearted gentleman,
industrious, temperate and irreproach-
able in his habits, and charitable in re-
gard to the shortcomings and weak
nesses of his fellow man.

Placing the little hats all in q row,
Ready for church on the morrow, you know;
Washing wee faces aud little black fists,
Getting them ready and st to be kissed;
Putting them into clean garments and white
That is what mothers are doing tonight.
Spying out holes in tho little worn hose.
Laying by shoes that are shot through the toes;
Looking DER garments so faded and thin
Who but a mother knows where to begfnl
Changing q button TO make it look right
That is what mothers are doing tonight.
Calling the little ones all round her chair,
Hearing them lisp forth their soft evening
prayer:
Telling them stories of Jesus of Old
The Shepherd who gathers the lambs to His
fold.
Creeping so softly to take last peep,
Since the last token of childhood's first slecr +;
Anxious to know if the dear ones are warm.
Tucking the blankets round each little form /;
Kissing each little face rosy and bright
That is what mothers arc doing tonight
Kneeling down gently beside the white bed,
Lowly and meellly bowing her head;
Praying US only a mother can pray,
.God guide and keep them from going astray!"
Angels are telling with angels delight,
That is what mothers are doing tonight

disheartened, discouraged and worn
